Minutes:
A report updating the Committee on the findings of the continuing quarterly evaluation of the Care at Home provision within the Bute and Cowal area was considered.
The report has been broken down to show the progress and joint working that has been put in place to ensure that a high quality service is provided, as it is recognised that this service is provided to vulnerable individuals, predominately by lone workers, in the home environment.
The Area Manager for Adult Care updated the Committee on the current position with the Sensory Impairment Team which is an Argyll wide team that is based in Dunoon. She advised there had been significant changes due to staffing illnesses and they were progressing to find an experienced Officer to assist with the 76 patients that are on the current waiting list for assessments.
